Select the allusion in the passage.
He was eighteen and it was high time that he went, before the soil caught him and rooted him forever. A soldier's life would be far more exciting. "Officer Cade Gaston Morteau!" he smiled, imagining himself in the magnificent uniform that was waiting for him upstairs in his bedroom. In it he would be transformed, rising like a phoenix from the ashes of his former self. And he would be fighting for the noblest cause: the defense of his country.
